Monday on Twitter, the word “Nutting” was trending, and it sparked a bunch of questions and inspired a bunch of hilarious responses. And just days before “No Nut November” too!
Scrolling through the tweets wouldn’t have done you any good because 99.9% of them were people either making jokes or asking why “Nutting” was trending. But that’s what we’re here for.
Here’s why “Nutting” was a trending topic on Twitter.
Apparently, the Pittsburgh Pirates (an MLB team) fired their general manager Neal Huntington Monday morning (Oct. 28), marking their third personnel dismissal in less than a month.
Bob Nutting has fired Neal Huntington. Which means he did, indeed, fire everyone. @Dejan_Kovacevic has more from PNC Park: https://t.co/C2S6MnBkgU

Robert “Bob” Nutting owns the team, and according to the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette, he was the “driving force” behind Huntington’s firing. His name is trending because of the discussion surrounding the Pirates.
Now that you know why “Nutting” was trending, let’s get to the jokes!

Highschool biology was not to make you doctors and nurses. It was to reach you small small lessons like; counting your girlfriend's safe days, locating her clit and knowing that nutting in her while she's on top she can't conceive.

Found #Nutting was trending today, then found out it had to do with sports.
I have really complicated feelings about this whole chain of events, about myself, and about society as a whole.
The internet was a mistake and we’re all terrible ??
